Settings > Model downloads can send Hugging Face downloads through
hf-mirror.com, on by default for the Chinese interface. The lookup and the
download use the chosen host whichever one the link names; when the mirror
sends a network outside China back to huggingface.co, the lookup follows
once for the size and SHA-256. A failed download from Hugging Face itself
suggests the mirror.
